[Verse 1]
Jim takes me down, he's a fire eater
Before the dawn or the valley shines
Jim takes me down to the river
All the way, past the mines
Girls in nightgowns hold their hands forever
Girls with pink lips cultivate the sound
They watch, we kiss on a bed of roses
As he lays me down

[Chorus]
He's a fire eater
He's a cult leader
He's a big believer in anything from the 70's
Said that LSD could be good for me
Lay down, lay down

[Verse 2]
Jim takes me down to the village diner
Makes them believe that there's nothing wrong
Parades me 'round like his fucking daughter
All the way, bow down

[Chorus]
He's a fire eater
He's a cult leader
He's a big believer in anything from the 70's
Said that LSD could be good for me
Lay down, lay down
[Bridge]
Oh, all the ways that your story was a let down
Oh-oh-oh, all the ways that your glory was a let down

[Chorus]
He's a fire eater
He's a cult leader
He's a big believer in anything from the 70's
Said that LSD could be good for me
Lay down, lay down
Lay down, lay down
